Has anyone used Omega Drivers?
simsfreq:
I've been having the same problem as this person (except I worded it better, but she has pictures.)
My specs checked out as fine, been told I should update the drivers for my Geforce4 MX 440 (64Mb). Only problem is I now discover they don't make drivers for it any more and I have the latest version anyway. So a quick google directed me to Omega Drivers, what are they like? Does anyone have any experience with them or are they even rubbisher?
Also, is upgrading my RAM (From 256Mb) likely to solve the problem, because my boyfriend works in a PC shop and is nicking me some, but if it will solve this annoyance I can badger him to get it quicker. (Yes I know I need more for the game to do anything worth watching, hence the nickerish nature of my boyfriend in general.)

I used Omega drivers when I had an ATI card, and found them to be awesome. I haven't used them with Nvidia products, though.
Also, YES, upgrade your RAM! 256 MB, I'm surprised you can even run the game. It may not be directly related to the problem you're having, but upgrading will certainly help your game run far better.
simsfreq:
I've run it on 256 before, way back when it first came out, but I've just moved out of my Mum's house and this computer was second hand and free so can't really complain! Would you say go just over 256, double as a minimum or get as much RAM as possible? I have a stick of 128 lying around somewhere, would that help in the short term?
neriana:
I'm no computer expert, so I don't know how much more RAM would be beneficial to you, just that more would be better. Perhaps you should post your system specs and someone else who knows more about the subject could help.

Fair enough, can't hurt to get some advice.
